Right Speed

Forget everything you’ve ever thought about radar detectors. Rather than encouraging speeding, these units are the best defense against accidentally exceeding the posted limit or blasting through a School Zone.

You won’t see a K40 radar detector in the mall’s electronics shop, but a quick survey of exotic car owners reveals the cult following this system enjoys. Unlike the mall detectors that beep maniacally every time you pass a convenience store, the aircraft-quality K40’s active filters screen out “junk” signals. If it shows a signal above a “4”, there’s radar just ahead of you, such as in a School Zone. A unique feature is the integral GPS, which provides direction and speed at eye level. The ultimate K40 setup has the main bits permanently installed out of sight. The firm’s K40 Consult Line is a concierge service that allows you to choose the perfect system for your driving style and vehicle.
